Challenging Behaviour – Supporting and understanding (Primary)

Challenging Behaviour - Understanding and providing support

About this session

Some pupils consistently display challenging behaviours. This can lead to disruption in the classroom and make them very challenging to work with. They may also refuse to do as they are asked and become oppositional.

This session provides practical guidance designed to understand where this behaviour is coming from and help deal with it more effectively. We explore creating a calmer learning environment for all pupils and their peers.

We will:

Explore the basics of neuroscience and behaviour

Explore strategies to prevent challenging behaviour occurring in the first place

Explore strategies to respond to challenging behaviour in the moment

Useful for those working with or caring for:

Primary aged children who consistently display challenging behaviour, and stand out from their peers in this respect.

Suitable for:

SENCos/ALNCos, Teachers, Pastoral Teams, Learning Mentors, Learning Support Assistants, Governors, Parents/Carers, Alternative Learning Providers.

Also included:
